Captured by Love

Written by Jody Hedlund

Narrated by Mary Sarah

Michigan Territory, 1814

A voyageur and a young woman swept up in a time of upheaval and danger discover firsthand the high price of freedom.

The British Army has taken control of Michilimackinac Island and its fort, forcing the Americans to swear an oath of loyalty to the crown in order to retain their land. Pierre Durant is a fur trader who returns after being away from the island for years, only to find the family farm a shambles and those he cares about starving and at the mercy of British invaders.

Torn between the adventurous life of fur trading and guilt over neglecting his defenseless mother, Pierre is drawn deeper into the fight against the British-and into a relationship with Angelique MacKenzie, a childhood friend who's grown into a beautiful woman. She now finds herself trapped by the circumstances of war and poverty, and the cruelty of her guardian, Ebenezer Whiley.

As tensions mount and the violence rages on, Pierre and Angelique must decide where their loyalties rest and how much they'll risk for love.

Reviews for Captured by Love

[Shelley Gill · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Per Jody's usual, this is an excellent romance mixed with adventure and anticipation.

[Amy Gibson · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

This wasn't my favorite audiobook. I really enjoy other books this Author writes. I didn't enjoy the back & forth rivalry between the brothers & the heroine being unsure of who she should love. I get the loyalty she must keep to the one she promised to marry....but I hate that she betrayed him. It ends ok, but just wasn't my favorite storyline. As some others have said in their reviews ....this book did feel very lusty...not the sweet strong romance blossoming.
